Pavlik was 172, Hopkins was 185 - Kelly lost to a bigger man

[Xyei]

HBO said Hopkins was 180.

Anyway, i'm already fed up of these bull**** excuses. Kelly was dominated from start to finish. It was a great win, end of story.

It's bull****. It's always the same **** around here

At the time of the fight, the more thickly built Bernard Hopkins weighed 185 while Kelly Pavlik was 172.



Hopkins seemed stonger than the slender Pavlik, and no wonder - he walks around at about 15 pounds heavier.

So what Hopkins weighed more on fight night, they still was of equal stature. Pavlik is taller and hit harder, it's no excuse. Pavlik is a good fighter but he is just not great as of yet, maybe in due time he will be. U don't let a 43 yr old man who isn't as fast as u, doesn't punch harder than u, and shorter than u out hustle u and just work out. He still got a lot to learn.

Funny how Mayweather gets no credit when he fights people who actually out-weigh him on fight night. But the excuses are ready raining in.

exactly, he coinstantly fought bigger fighters and dominated them and none of them was 43, but he gets no love. Pavlik gets outboxed and outworked by a 43 old man and they trying to make an excuse. Just face it, he not great, atleast not yet.

B-HOP IMO was always faster than Pavlik. B-HOP just couldn't keep up his speed for a whole fight it seemed lately. Pavlik looked ice wagon slow in that fight. Pavlik's punches were so slow to me all I thought of was Ali before he fought Foreman. Ali said Foreman was so slow he could see all of his punches coming "WHHHOOOOO here comes the left, WHHHOOOOO here come the right".

Given that they were only 2 pounds over the SMW limit, if he couldn't cope with the weight on Saturday then he has no business being above middleweight and should stick to fighting down there.

Oh, for the love of Pete! I saw the fight ONCE and I even I remember before the fight the weights that were displayed:

Weigh-in: 169 for Pavlik
170 for Hopkins

After the weigh-in: 174 for Pavlik
180 for Hopkins

Look at this crying **** fruitcake..lol

Pavlik was 26 and Hopkins 44

Kelley's age advantage trumps B-Hop's weight advantage.

I knew you'd have you're ****less ass in here doing damage control.

Sissyfied *****.

Your just trying to discredit his win. B-Hop schooled your boy and those 6 pounds wouldn't have done anything

Funny how that works around here.
